Dear Diana,
I hope that this quick response finds you well in Florida.
I have assembled a few things for you to think about. Keep in mind that

hope to provide you with somewhat of a standard as to the differences
Best choice for a warm tone is single F brass, but what to do with the
high notes ?
Get a Bb-side added.
If the Bb-side does not satify for the extreme high, get a high F added,
etc.
If the sound is quite small then, get a bigger bell added.
If the sound is not warm enough then, get a red
I enjoyed that letter Hans. I can't begin to tell you how many people think
that by getting their ultimate horn (and sadly I used to think this way) that
all of a sudden your mistakes would all and dissappear and then magically you
could play like Baumann.
Wrong.
I find that now that I own a

PS: Speaking of Yamahas, every one I've ever played on is stuffy. Has anyone
else had this experience or is it just me and my personal preferences?

I played a Yamaha 862 for several years and found it to be as open, or even
more open, than an 8D. If I
I've played the triples before but I've never played the Customs. I would
expect a Yamaha Custom to be much better than the standard-issue 668 from what I
hear about them. However some factories' higher models of horns like Holton

Absolutely true. And it _still_ manages to be just as boring.

There are many horns made with the kruspe wrap as you call it- some fine
instruments, some poor ones.
To condemn all horns made in a specific wrap because you happened to have a
not so easy to play horn of this type is simply sophomoric.

Not once did I say a specific wrap was better for anybody- I've had my luck
with the geyer after a long stint with a Kruspe which was a fine typical Kruspe
playing horn and it sold for a good chunk of money, It's dangerous to
generalize which I never have done!
Best of wishes,
Hoss
There was one on hornplayer.net not too long ago...might still be there.

Yes, I've had this done...to that same Yamaha 862 I was discussing earlier
today. And, as I understand it, William is right...the idea behind the
freezing treatment is to relax the tensions in the metal so that the horn
plays older than its years. But I hasten to add that the metals are not
Well, that's interesting. These horns and Bergs have been almost
unobtainable in the secondary market, and now there is a 'glut' of Rauch's.
Guess we can blame this on the bad economy?

In response to Hans' recent posting, I thought it

Tons of wisdom with a touch of humor.
The trouble is that everything he says does work.
So, in spite of my best personal efforts, and the
